if Lebron was caught using roids

[chairman]

How bad would this hurt his all time ranking?

[9erempiree]

He falls out of the top 25.

[WayOfWade]

He'd be GOAT for sure.

[Rose'sACL]

That would mean that pretty much all the top players since the 90s have been using. His all time ranking would take as much hit as Jordan and kobe would as compared to players who played before the 90s. There is a reason no athlete ever snitches on other athletes unless he is caught. For decades now athletes in other sports have been using some kind of PEDs, it wouldn't surprise me if NBA players were using given that even bad player who are on the bench make millions.

[MP.Trey]

It would be very bad. Especially if he was the first and/or biggest of a string of busts. There would be a whole lot of asterisks in the record books and it would taint the image of the league as a whole if their best player/poster boy was on roids.

I can't say for sure what it would do to his ranking, I'm sure some would keep him where he is, maybe with an asterisk. Some would bump him down 10-20, some would probably choose to never mention him in any sort of ranking discussion.

But I can say that his legacy, along with the league's would be tarnished, and it would be a lot of negative press and a lot of recovery to get over a scandal of the sort.

You say steroids, I know you have no clue what you're talking about.

[Is He Ill]

Ahhh, I can't wait. Hopefully the last two Heat titles will be revoked.

If he were on steroids he'd look like Iggy.

see thats where youd be wrong,
Lance Armstrong was snitching on everybody and getting lawyers whatever he could do to out people while he himself was the biggest user and he was trying to cover that up,
He sued hundreds of people who tried to out him,he had several people blackballed from cycling,
anything to get an advantage he did

Carl Lewis did the same thing only he had the backing of the US Government on his side

[Nick Young]

It would get covered up, or ignored, like how Messi has been on HGH since he was 13 but no one talks about it

[Flash31]

If he were on steroids he'd look like Iggy.

Redick went from 180 pounds to 230 pounds

[Myth]

They need punishments like they have in college where they retroactively remove awards (MVP, championships, etc). They also need to do playoffs suspensions like college does bowl suspensions.

That is a horrendous idea. Yea let's take a horrible system and implement it in even more areas retroactive punishments punish everyone but who actually committed the wrong doing. How is it fair to the fans, management, and other players to be banned from the post season if one player is on PEDs?
